Perimenopause & Menopause: Eating Smarter, Not Less
About
Lunch with a Dietitian: Eating Smarter, Not LessNutrition, lifestyle & medical strategies for midlife health
Perimenopause and menopause can affect energy, mood, body composition, and long-term health — often well before they’re clearly recognised or explained.
This relaxed, evidence-based lunch event is designed to cut through the confusion and give you clear, practical guidance on how to support your body through midlife. It’s about understanding what your body needs now — and how to fuel it efficiently, without restriction or extremes.
What you’ll learn
You’ll gain practical, usable knowledge to help you:
Eat to support energy, strength, muscle, and metabolism
Understand midlife changes without fear or frustration
Build habits that support long-term health, not quick fixes
Feel confident in your food, movement, and lifestyle choices
Guest speakers
This event brings together nutrition, medical insight, and movement expertise:
Dr Laura Walter, founder of Perl Menopause & Midlife - GP Specialists with medical insight into perimenopause and menopause — what’s happening, what matters, and when to seek support.
Freya Simmonds, local exercise physiologist and strength specialist
How strength training and movement support muscle, bone health, metabolism, and confidence in midlife.
Led by Lauren Rubin, Dietitian and Director of The Noosa Dietitian, the session focuses on translating evidence into real-world strategies you can actually use.
The experience
Settle in for a two-course lunch with a welcome drink in the Ocean View Room at Sunshine Surf Club, and enjoy a curated wellness gift bag featuring premium skincare and wellness products — including Saya, an Australian botanical skincare brand known for its nourishing, high-quality formulations. Selected products are designed to support skin health during midlife and beyond.
Bring your girlfriends, relax, learn, and leave feeling informed, supported, and empowered — with knowledge that lasts far longer than the lunch.
